Months ago, Andrew Cuomo teased that he’d pack his bags and head to Florida if Zohran Mamdani won. Now that New York City has chosen its Mayor, the former governor should check if his suitcase is missing anything.

Mamdani, the 34-year-old progressive leader, defeated him in the general race for mayor in an undisputed victory. He captured over 50% of the votes to Cuomo’s approximate 41.6%, with Republican Curtis Sliwa trailing even farther behind.
